Ferrari to evolve pull-rod suspension for 2013

Ferrari is persevering with its ‘pull-rod’ front suspension layout for their F2013, technical director Pat Fry has confirmed.

Last year, the Italian team stunned its rivals by reviving a concept not seen in F1 since Minardi used it to ‘cruise’ around at the back of the grid in 2001.

Fernando Alonso ultimately came close to winning last year’s title, but it is true that Ferrari initially struggled with its F2012, which even when heavily developed was never the most competitive car in the field.
